It began snowing around 10pm and by 1am it was a blizzard. We took two cars so I was driving home alone when I slid into a curb destroying my left front wheel. After getting the car onto a side street and into a parking spot I began the long (18 miles) walk home. I had on loafers and a sports jacket against sub freezing wind driven snow.
